That means <ResultSet> and all of its unprefixed descendants are in
the "urn:yahoo:prods" namespace.

Define that namespace in your stylesheet with a prefix, then modify
all of your template match patterns with that prefix eg:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:yahoo="urn:yahoo:prods"...

then

<xsl:template match="yahoo:ResultSet">
